Runway to Reality: Louis Vuitton S/S 2010

Louis Vuitton S/S 2010

It hasn't even been 5 full days yet since they debuted on the runway and fashionistas are already rocking looks from the Louis Vuitton S/S 2010 collection! While the select few who actually have access to the pieces can be called lucky, they've also got to be among some of the ballsiest people I know. Marc Jacob's collection for LV was crazy! I mean come on. Shoulder bags with rabbit tails! Neon colors! Furry kitten heels! Afros!?!? Don't get me wrong, the collection was great and forward thinking but I didn't imagine that the pieces would translate from runway to ready-to-wear with such ease. I can't wait to see exactly how much influence this particular collection will have on apparel and accessory trends come Spring.

Runway to Reality: Mary J Blige AT&T Commercial

I was watching a little television earlier this evening when my attention was drawn to a particular AT&T commercial. What sparked my interest? Well, it wasn't Mary J. Blige (who I barely recognized), and it DEFINITELY wasn't the selection of crappy keyboard phones AT&T was trying to shell out. Rather, it was the print on Blige's tank top which I immediately recognized to be from the Alexander McQueen S/S 09 Collection. Although the tank top itself isn't a runway piece, I'm assuming they used that particular print design for a variety of RTW pieces. Click here to see Mary J in action (or just look below).
